If we stop killing animals,then this world will become a desert in few decades.

Vegans are just stupids who don't have enough knowledge to know about the food cycle chain.

yep. many vegans dont realise that if animals spread and reproduce and graze on everything green , nothing green is left.

vegans dont realise that 'organic' 'free range' farming ends up needing several fields where cows are periodically herded into other fenced off fields before all the grass is grazed, so that while in another field the first has time to recover and regrow. without farmers/cowbows to herd cows around in a controlled methodic method the animals just eat anything they find.

its why raccoons run out of 'natural' food and end up straying into cities to raid trashcans because they ate all the natural food in the countryside.

if vegans think there is a lack of vegetable supply to feed everyone now. imagine the situation after wild animals are grazing

you do realise it was not actually a real question but a sarcastic rhetorical sentence to raise a point..
i guess you missed the point which does not require becoming a follower of a fan club

again to end this subject

raw food requiring a cook book... 
it like saying space requires oxygen to be a void

lets word it another way just for you
if you think you ned a cook book to teach you how to cook meat in a RAW DIET. your missing many points.

but i hope you enjoy following the cooks that dont cook and the lentz that doesnt know law

have a good day though
12563  Other / Politics & Society / Re: a society question about vegans on: November 14, 2019, 05:36:38 PM
raw ... uncooked
raw carnivores
no vegetables.
raw diet

but then
cookbook

anyone see the problem with this


so whats the recipies..
oxtongue marinated in a fridge with a sauce made of blood and saliva?
beef liver in a nice lamb seaman soup


Just to help you out in your weakness...

You might try going to the article and checking out the place that says, "Ashley and Sarah, who boast almost 12,000 followers on Instagram with the handle @strong.sistas," and then signing up with Instagram if you don't already have an account, and asking them. It's all in the site reference in my post you referenced, and slightly quoted.

Cool

you dont get it
COOK book... for people who dont COOK
its simple english. no need for anyone to become follower number 12,001 to find that out

anyway bitcoins values( function) has always been '21mill btc' even though the number of decimals over the years have changed.
yep bitcoin 2009 didnt have 8 decimals
and in a few years wont have 8 decimals

but bitcoins value(price) is not based on the 18m in circulation. nor the potential 21m circulation.. bitcoins price value is based on cost of mining and the market rate where the supply is around 1.2m deposited in exchanges and put on order lines

Wrong again. How can Core "implement"? Core makes makes the code, but who puts it into effect? Core?

core already implemented many things.
have you not realised that core regulated other dev groups out of BTC.. or do you still want to remain ignorant of history. even when gmax himself told you so recently

if core is the 'reference client' literally the CORE of the network. what do you think people are going to follow.
have you even realised how much control or power core have. or are you really trying to deny it still.

P.S core.. or more specifically matt corrallo changed some checking mechanisms in the last couple years and guess who approved it, gmax. and guess what that change done. made it possible to double spend.. luckily people realised it. but guess what had to occur.. no it was not a just release a client without the bug and let people download it.. but instead plead to core to change their code, where core asked the bug finder to keep quiet about it. and then LATER core eventually got round to releasing a fix.

yep asking people they have to download core as the solution because god forbid if the bug finder released his own fix core would go mental and call it as many names under the sun as they could think of

before even bothering to reply. just ask yourself, are you about to press the reply button for
a. defend a dev reputation
b.deny history of occurances without independant research
c. deny history of occurances because someone pro core said told you what to believe
d. reply just to be sarcastic and poke the bear as usual
or maybe
e. done some independant research without pro-core influence
f. actually think about things from a critical thinking perspective of the btc networks security without core defence mantra

if the answer sounds long the lines of a,b,c,d dont even bother.. i heard all your fan club speaches

P.S
devs are already doing it LN but LN's millisats are not compatible with BTC's sats. which is why the pegging locked transactions are at play between the TWO SEPARATE NETWORKS
(an LN payment is not a BTC transaction)

core devs hope to soon add 4 more decimals to btc so that btc and LN match to really mak it APPEAR as if its all the same thing, before too many people wise up that its 2 separate networks using 2 different units of account and 2 different 'ledger' formats

12567  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Depression and exercise on: November 14, 2019, 03:49:58 PM
it depnds on the type of depression

for instance telling someone to go for a walk and get someone to go to their house to pull them out and do some exercise will actually cause more mental hard for someone who has anxiety, social issues and agoraphobic

telling someone who is anorexic that they need to exercise can also be counter intuitive

someone who is depressed due to being a quadriplegic (no movement below neck), is just reminding them of what thy are unable to do.

what helps more is not exercise, but finding a way to get someone out of the situation. maybe if lonely getting someone to talk to. maybe if boy image shaming finding a diet thats high nutritonally without the weight that comes with heavy meals.

sometimes its not the exercise, but just the view of a different environment that can excite the hormone glands to release endorphines
EG going on a date can release more endorphins than a 20 minute run.

What crocodile tears?
you know the kind. when you find out someone dies and suddenly everyone acts like it happened to their best friend even though they had nothing to do with that person. just to try and fame up their life like they are trendy or special by being in some group

i still of the mindset that vegetarians are the true non meat eaters and vegans are just the buzzword trend lovers of instagram and twitter. who are radicals and oversell their opinions without doing research, and cry on command without real provocation
12569  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash Advocate Roger Ver Calls Veterans ‘Retired Hitmen’ on: November 14, 2019, 03:22:44 PM
first world war?

was america even under threat of invasion during the first word war? was it really 'defence' they were involved in
was america really at such a danger that the military was in 'defence' mode defending its border. or in 'offence' mode going into other countries borders

funny part is america was in the 'offence' mode when it went into the ottoman empires borders and started clashes there, which ripples into the anger, revenge resentment and holding a grudge that lead to the whole 'terrorist' attacks this millenia

but lets just be quiet about that and pretend america are peaceful and doing it all just as a 'defence' for its people.
much like lets avoid school shooters who terrorise kids being referred to as terrorists and just call them 'lone gunmen' just to avoid bad press.

i personally do praise veterans. not for their actions. but their bravery to risk their lives. even if the cause was unjust.

We can however eat honey - it's just that we need signed consent from every bee involved in the process. This tends to take such a long time that mostly we just don't bother and say we can't eat it.

but vegans with their fake sympathy cries still do what they do, yet i never see any signed consent to use crocodile tears
12571  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does technical analysis have any value for Bitcoin? on: November 14, 2019, 02:05:51 PM
the stupid thing about trend analysis is that if everyone follows a prompt such as 'sell because there will be a drop' guess what.. a drop wiil occur because of the sell.

its not predicting, its causing.

so when a mass of people program their bots to just follow the lead. its not based on predicting. its based on causing the result of a prompt
basically its a form of pump and dump where one prompter makes people react to cause thee action the prompter wants.

the bad thing about it is by the time people react the prompter has already reacted way way before thus he makes the maximum gains and the reactors and causers are left at the loss as they are the last to the pump and dump game

trend analysis predicts nothing.
trend analysis just turns people into pump an dump sheep causing people to repeat history over and over

dont treat trend analysis as technical . and stop even describing trend analysis of historic price as 'technical'

if you want to do proper technical analysis find things outside of the historic price. that way you can be first to set new trends rather than just repeat history and be last to react

remember once you hear someone prompting a action, your the last to hear.
dont be a sheep, become a shepherd
use real technical stuff thats not just price history
12572  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does technical analysis have any value for Bitcoin? on: November 14, 2019, 01:31:07 PM
I used TAs a lot back when I was day trading. In short-term trading, it could really be helpful but you shouldn't depend on them too much. I learned that when I was watching a Youtube video on how to day trade in Binance.
In long-term trading, sometimes it can help. The patterns of the chart could mean a prediction to another week/month/year that it might happen once again.

TREND analysis does not help short term day trading. a 6month previous trend does not help predict the waves of trading at a daily level. it basically just says when you see a spike expect a fall

Technical analysis that studies things like mining costs and UTXO hoards(how much exchange coldstore (richlist 100+ addresses)) are hoarding are better indicators of how many people want to buy and how many want to sell.

nothing is a perfect science but pretending trend analysis of just historic prices is 'technical' is foolish. pretending TREND analysis is good for day trading is even more foolish.

if your going to use TECHNICAL analysis, actually find some measures that are actually technically based. and not just drawing lines based on some random number in the past.
12573  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Fighting unemployment by monetizing your passion. on: November 14, 2019, 06:25:21 AM
knowing your passion is just about how enjoyable your job is. this does not translate to how profitable you will be
some managers hate their job but get paid more than a lower level employee that loves their job.

the key thing that makes the difference is how your labour and time is distributed to serve its purpose to a wider audience/customer base within a short period of time.

EG someone that enjoys selling cars
spending 4 hours talking to one customer rather than 1 hour might appear more relaxed, less pushy, and and nice feeling getting to know someone. but you are likely to get 4x less commision by taking your time

however making a video advert that takes 3 minutes and is broadcast/streamed to millions of people can get you maybe 100 sales via the internet shopping cart. which leads to 8000x more commissions than the 4 hour cosy sales pitch with on customer

take being a manager.
imagine an accountant makes it where labour is 2% of sales value whereby 1% for saleperson and 1% for manager
so a salesperson gets $1000 a month. but a manager overseeing 4 salespeople and thus 'hinting' at being involved in 4x the amount of sales as just one sales person, gets $4000 a month
all without doing any extra work than 2 feet or 2 hands are capable off(manager doesnt actually do the work of 8feet and 8 hands to earn 4x of what a 2feet 2hand salesman does)

in short. passion is just will you enjoy the job. whats important to make it worth doing though is how much time/labour is needed to live off of. because if you dont have money to live on. you very quickly stop doing your hobby to try earning funds to try to survive
12574  Other / Serious discussion / Re: We're not cutting co2 emissions any time soon on: November 14, 2019, 06:04:58 AM
this pdf doesnt include h2o thus is void of showing the true composition of the atmosphere
According to the EPA, CO2 in the atmosphere is the predominant factor (https://climatechange.lta.org/wp-content/uploads/cct/2015/02/EPA-climate-forcing-2014.pdf). Regardless of the effect of water vapor, CO2 has a significant impact.

the atmosphere has hundreds of thousands of water vapour particles but only thousands of carbon

the planets heat control is in two parts. ground level reflection and cloud level reflection
odolvlobo linked an article suggesting that carbon is making snow black and how snow being black makes the planet heat up.
sorry last time i checked. snow was still white
also the 60% attributed to water vapour was not of both land reflection AND cloud level

now here is some easy to observe test
take a concrete slab. put it on the ground. take some carbon throw it ontop. can you see much of a difference in how reflective it is. EG could you see your reflection in the concrete more before the carbon.. no because concrete aint reflective in the first place. adding carbon does not change things as its already not reflective.

now throw some water on the slab.
oh look a puddle. can you see your reflection now? yes. because water reflects. yep water reflects a heck of alot more than carbon does

what is also observable is that solid liquid(ice) burns at a lower temperature than carbon does
its why at room temperature h20 is a liquid and carbon is still a solid. its why at body temperature water evaporates to a gas but carbon is still a solid

at cloud layer reflection its water. not carbon clouds.
for carbon to even get high enough into the stratosphere requires a huge amount of heat

this is why statistics foolishly try to only measure 'atmosphere' particles from just the troposphere(ground level up to clouds) rather than troposphere to ionosphere aswell
even more foolish is studies pre1960 were just based on ICE layers. meaning. just ground level itself

but ignoring certain particles and avoiding showing the whole composition of the atmosphere then yes they can create new narrative

again carbon in full atmosphere is only 0.04% yet take out water and be foolishly ignorant of water, sways the stats making it look like we are living in clouds made of soot. where snow rains down as black coal and where temperatures should be 18000 degrees

..
other planets like my previous post hinted but are independantly observable and researchable show that planets where there is no water vapour and where carbon is higher, even at 95% atmosphere are not thousands of degrees.
which also disproves that a change of 0.01% carbon caused a 2 degree change
because just 1.04% carbon is then supposedly a 200 degree change and a 3% carbon is a 600 degree change

but other planets of 95% carbon are not 18000 degrees. and again as hinted. these planets are CLOSER to the sun before people pretend that distance to the sun of planets further away cools it. infact closer to the sun would mean even hotter than 18000. yet. they are not 18000, not even 1800 but even lower

when people realise that carbons 'effect' has been intentionally swayed by being ignorant by excluding h20 in stats. is like ignoring flour

...
other observations
our human bodies. our bodies have evolved to survive by knowing how to expel heat from our bodies
when we sweat we cool our body by releasing water vapour. but having a bowl movement and releasing carbon does not cause the same temperature decline.
.
if carbon was a bigger heat reduction control. we would literally sweat out soot and tar.... but we dont

many countries that have the positive view of rehab call their prisons 'correctional facilities' as oppose to prisons 'incarceration facilities'

though america is very much known to just lock up and forget the inmates in 'correctional facilities' by not offering them any rehabilitation services/education/incentive to do better


(im british but most people in the btc community is american so i sway the context i talk about in their direction because they seem to hate it when using british or european examples)


whats most alarming to me about the topic is how much is spent and what its used for
EG for america 2.3mill inmates yet the national budget is $1.82bill
thats $79k budget per inmate on average
but the thing that alarms me most is that for every 4 inmates there is only one staff.

so for $316k budget for the 4 inmates only pays for 1 employee

imagining the staff salary get $30-$40k you have to ask where does the other $276k go

think about it a $2 a meal budget for 3meals a day for 4 inmates=$24 a day= under $10k a year
laundry. lets call that $10k
electric, heating, water call that $10k

thats still leaves $246k in question

so somone tweted up 150 down 300

so up +1.7%
down to flat
down to -1.7%
i call that a normal day

try to only get emotional when things move by 20%
because the november 11th-12th was $8850-$9000-$8700
yet october 23rd to oct 25th -$7500->$9500 = over +20%

when you get a 20% rise expect it to come down. maybe not all the way but expect something
at the moment the price this weeks is settling at a $8750 level which is only $250 off the october 25th tip

so dont cry disaster until this price this month goes below $7500 which is a possible retest of the monthly low. although numbers in the $8k+ range seem to be the average expectation

if your getting emotional and giving up on BTC ovr a 2 day gamble of a 3% change.. maybe trading in any crypto is not right for you.
also you shouldntt have bought at the rise.
always buy the dip (buy low sell high)
12579  Other / Politics & Society / Re: a society question about prison time on: November 13, 2019, 04:21:39 PM
What to do with the extreme crimes? Did you know my country has a theoretical maximum penalty of 30 years? You could pull out a terrorist attack killing thousands, and you would still get 30 years. I remember a case of a man who raped and killed a woman, he got the same sentence, but after 16 years he was released on "good conduct". First thing he tried to do was rape a prostitute (prostitution is not a crime here), back to prison for some months i guess...
i would consider that things could b done
for instance if a man kills 3 people. in a country that has 30year max thats 3 charges thus 90 years
for sexual assault
you could have like non-violent touching of a non consenting adult X
you could have like non-violent touching of a non consenting child XX
you could have like violent touching of a non consenting adult XX
you could have like violent touching of a non consenting child XXX
and then multiplied by the number of incidences
not just incidence meaning occassions it occured but also, adding other charges of a single occassion where person was threated, tied up a weapon was involved. it all adds up

thus a butt grab is not treated the same as a violent rape at knife point

I think there are cases where both forced labor and perhaps capital punishment is required. For the lesser crimes your ideas are not bad at all. We have absurd things like people getting years imprisoned over downloading some movie, that is ridiculous.

For those that get "life sentences" capital punishment could be considered. Rape could be dealt bible style with some good old fashioned castration, perhaps only for repeat offenders (or more than one victim without doubts).
i would be ok with castration for sexually based physical acts like rape
as for just being caught drinking at a bar and on the way caught short peeing in a bush treated as a sexual offense. i think would be rediculous to then give same punishment as a rapist

I don't know if "penal colonies" could have some use in certain circumstances, for "medium" or "light" crimes. I know in some Nordic country they have what essentially looks like a resort, they are sent to some island and live kinda like that Prisoner sci-fi show (without the interrogations). On the opposite you get countries like mine where the prisons are so hellish, you either become super criminal in there or die, period. So get caught in a protest and your chance of coming out like a blood thirsty killer is high. And yeah, they throw everyone together in conditions that would be too extreme to tell here.
i dont see being plugged into a 'matrix' style system to live out your punishment. or being put into hibernation/frozn for prison length (movies like demolition man and minority report concepts)
though cheaper to monitor if they are all 'asleep' thus wont need guards i still think being awake and in a position to reflect on what they done should be prioritised rather than just getting through their sentance.
so rehab neds to be part of it, if there was to be any consideration of 'early release'

i think for early release bing just not doing bad stuff in prison.. is stupid. doing time by default should be that you dont do anything bad. and i think if you do do bad stuff in prison your time is extended

Perhaps some are suited for rural labor, tending a farm and things like that.

I don't know if people could truly rehab or not given different conditions, in the first place they should be separated from society to prevent them (physically) harming people, then comes the next part of what to do with them. Some things like tax evasion should not be putting people behind bars, that is plain stupid (same as copyright infringers).
yes physical harm neds separating from society. whether its domestic abuse, a punch up, rape murder. obviously separate from society. but the time scales should be based on the harm done multiplied by how many incidences

as for non violent crimes well it cant be just a fine, there should be other things. even things not even tried before
i know things like running a ponzi also has things like not allowed to be a CEO again or not allowed to work in the finance section of an industry or company

but i still think financial crimes that are fins should be related to incomes. EG not a set $500 fine for a speeding ticket but instead $500 for minimum wage with it incrementing up in multiples of what income that person has

because some rich lambo owners think the price of hiring a private race track is more expensive than just driving normal roads and take the risk getting caught, so they just drive fast on public roads

as soon as i read the first post whre they called it 'quantum' i instantly knew it was fake
too many people do not understand what quantum really is. and so treat it as mystical energy and stuff(which its not)
sorry guys quantum is just a buzzword people use to sould techno savvi but without revealing the truth

putting it short.
quantum computers is not some other transdimensional void where you can meet a doppleganger of yourself that made a slightly diffrent choice in life that lead to a diffrent path.

its not about alternative realities
quantum computers super position is just instead of binary of 0 1
where 0 is 0 volts of electric and 1 is 1 volt of electric
a qubit is simple
0v 0.33v 0.66v and 1v
thus mor than 2 options.
its then programmed where those extra options can mean other things.
eg 0v      = off
eg 0.33v = off and on
eg 0.66v = on and off
eg 1v      = on
its not alternative universe' dimension'. but instead its 2s to 3d (square to cube) width/height to width height/depth
for of dimension

there is nothing special about it
its like starting with a language of math of 10 characters. and expanding it to alphanumerics of 36 characters
basically just getting out the limited dimension of just yes and no/true or false/on or off

so thats it.
quantum energy is just buzzwords.
like throwing blockchain infront of anything like a 'blockchain coffee' thats simply unfiltered coffee that contains bits of coffee bean in it.
